56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION COMMERCIAL 12” BRUSH CUTTER — BCX4500/BCX4500-FC 27
HOLDING THE BRUSH CUTTER
(FIG. 7)
WARNING:
Dress properly to
reduce the risk of injury when operating
this machine. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Wear eye and ear/hearing
protectors. Wear heavy, long pants, boots
and gloves. Do not wear short pants or
sandals or go barefoot.
Hold the brush cutter with both hands on
the right side of your body. Keep a firm
grip with both hands while operating the
machine. The blade or the trimmer head
should be parallel to the ground at a
proper cutting distance without the need
for the operator to bend over.
USING THE BRUSH CUTTER
To cut wild growth and scrub, lower the rotating blade down onto the ground to achieve
a chopping effect. Use the brush cutter like a scythe (sweep it to the right and left) at
ground level. Do not use the cutting attachment above waist height.
WARNING:
The higher the cutting attachment is off the ground, the greater the
risk of injury from cuttings being thrown sideways.
WARNING:
When cutting young stands or other woody materials up to 3/4 in (2
cm) in diameter, use the left side of the blade to avoid blade thrust situations. Do not
attempt to cut woody material with a larger diameter, since the blade may catch or jerk
the brush cutter forward. This may cause damage to the blade or the brush cutter or
loss of control of the brush cutter, resulting in personal injury.
WARNING:
Thrown parts may seriously injure the operator or bystander. To
reduce the risk of personal injury, it is essential to take the following precautions:
◾
Avoid contact with hard or solid foreign objects such as stones, rocks, or pieces
of metal.
◾
Never cut wood or shrubs with a stem diameter of more than 3/4 in (2 cm).
